Abstract: A communication method for storage device on the basis of file access is provided. When a storage controller is added with a nonstandard control function, a command file and a response file are virtually produced in the memory as the communicating interface with an application program. The virtual files can then be read and written using the standard storage control protocol. This avoids modifying the communicating interface between the driver program and the application program for the newly added nonstandard control protocol.

Abstract: A remote monitoring control method of a network camera is provided. The network camera is connected to an internal network host through a heterogeneous interface, and environmental parameters of the internal network host are automatically imported, so as to set the network camera. After the network camera is enabled, a network-address reporting procedure is executed, and an E-mail with a referral link generated based on the environmental parameters is transferred to an external local area network (LAN). An external monitoring host is directly connected to the network camera through the E-mail, so as to perform remote monitoring. In other words, the network camera is set and a remote monitoring is performed through the heterogeneous interface and the E-mail, such that the network camera can be easily enabled, and it is convenient for a user of the external network to perform remote monitoring.

Abstract: A storage device interface is provided, which includes a device end interface and a device end serial interface, wherein the device end interface and the device end serial interface are disposed in a microprocessor, such that the microprocessor activates one of the device end interface and the device end serial interface in response to a diagnosis signal.

Abstract: A video camera stand with a video server function is provided, which is used for joining with a video camera. The video camera stand includes a stand body, a base, and a network video server module disposed in the stand body, and furthermore, the video camera stand and the video camera share a single power supply wiring, without additionally connecting to a different power supply.

Abstract: A web-based equipment firmware control system and method are provided, wherein a device is electrically connected to a computer executable platform through a communication interface, and a control webpage capable of controlling the equipment firmware is generated in a file system of the computer executable platform through the communication between the respective storage interfaces, provided in the device and the computer executable platform. Hereby, the control webpage is displayed to facilitate the operation of the user. As such, the user may issue the control instruction through the control webpage. Thus, the control instruction is sent to the equipment firmware for processing through the communication between the respective control interfaces. Then a return message indicating the processing result is transmitted back to the control webpage in a similar maimer through the respective control interfaces.
